Hmmm. A compact alternate form of this tool (non-rotating) could also be used on a boring bar to turn nuts for the potential extended helical gear angle (80 max at this point) and width. These would then be termed screws/nuts instead of gears.
Edit in.... I'm sorry, after seeing Art's post about the release, I see the correct term is "wormgear".
